Implementation of Business Strategy
Throughout 2022, the Company made various important breakthroughs that became the projection of the foundation of sustainable growth launched by the Shareholders. Starting with the mandate to further strengthen the business portfolio according to the company's core competencies. The Board of Directors took a strategic step by releasing KDL's PT Krakatau Information Technology shares to PT S Krakatau Sarana Infrastruktur by 11.72%.
